I wear my hair shoulder lengh and in layers (I have very thick hair). When my hair dresser styles my hair, it always comes out silky straight. When I try to style my hair it never comes out the same especially in the back. I have tried using round brushes and rollers. But that doesn't work very well. Do you have any sugesstions???

I have the same thick hair and layers like you. The hair dresser gets it silky because it's all in the blow drying. I have found that actually using a cream straightener works to get rid of the thickness and bulk, making the hair look flatter. I also suggest laying off the blow drying as in my experience, air-drying gets it quite smooth after combing it down after a wash. Hope this helps!Christine

I have very thick, curly hair. I find that using a paddle brush and blow drying it helps a lot. It makes it very straight. :-)Diana

Hi Diana,Great tip.I have a Cricket brand boar's head paddle brush and it really does work when I do blow dry (which is not often). It gets rid of every wave and curl. I love paddle brushes, they are just fun to use. :-)Karen> I have very thick, curly hair. I find that using a> paddle brush and blow drying it helps a lot. It makes> it very straight. :-)> Diana
